Howdy all, found this forum searching for tutorials on the Align 3GX gyro and luckily for me I came across Tony's brilliant guides on You Tube and that led me here.
I've been flying RC airplanes for a few years and then a few months I made the shift to a Hexacopter running 3DR APM flight controller which gives multiple flight modes including autonomous. They are now fitting more and more to traditional helicopters and that's what sparked my interest and I started searching for a heli to get me going and I settled on the Align 450L Dominator, which should arrive this coming Monday.
I use a Futaba T8FJ Super and R6208SB receivers in everything I have flown, so the 450L will not be any different. I must admit that for an old fella I'm getting fairly excited in putting the 450 together, I downloaded the manual a couple of weeks ago and it's not bad, but the 3GX part was a tad ordinary so I consider myself lucky in finding the videos and this forum.
I've been spending a fair amount of time on the simulator flying the heli and I realise that I have a long learning curve (which is fairly flat at the moment) in front of me which I am looking forward to taking on, and I'm sure that I will be asking a few questions along the way.
Cheers
